Is there an inexpensive way to base yourself out of Kugane/Shirogane?

[Iscah]

Actually, teleporting to a housing ward seems to be quarter-price of whatever the trip to the main city aetheryte would cost – which to Kugane from a non-Othard destination is capped at 999 gil, so Shirogane is 249. (I worked out a while back that the cost is based on distance plus 100 gil travel fee.)

Favoured destinations are half-price, Gold Saucer is always half-price, and FC buffs can give you a 30% reduction on all costs, so 699 instead of 999 as the full capped price.

It's also worth considering that once you are in Shadowbringers, all teleports to any Eorzean or Othardian destinations will be at the capped price, so the difference of housing location is less important. And Endwalker sounds like it's going to be all over the place.

From memory, Limsa is far away from Gyr Abania that you hit the cap travelling that distance too.

From memory, Limsa is far away from Gyr Abania that you hit the cap travelling that distance too.

From the Ala Mhigan Quarter, all destinations in La Noscea are in the 900 range, with several at the cap, including Limsa. Most of Thanalan (barring the Gold Saucer) is in the 700s, and most of Coerthas is higher (the Dravania destinations hit the cap, but oddly the Sea of Clouds are in the upper 600s, and Azys Lla is 752....I guess the floating Allagan death continent is closer than Ishgard?).

Unrelatedly, I apparently still have Horizon set as a favored destination from returning to the Waking Sands.
